Phineas and Ferb is an original cartoon on Disney Channel, created by Dan Povenmire (you know, that guy who used to work on Family Guy) and Jeff Marsh. What isn't known about the series is that both creators widely hate Disney's monopoly and the show's real concept goes beyond just a children's cartoon; an episode about Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz's real concept was produced secretly by good part of the staff who ran the risk of being fired without thinking twice, even the original voice actors.
The episode leaked of where they kept it by an anonymous who uploaded it on a little trendy cartoon forum.
That day my computer was doing an annoying noise like if it were a whisk. My big brother insisted to check it up or the CPU was going to literally burn up. Anyway, I got into that forum where the thread posted by a relatively new user posted the lost episode, I had some time to download it before having to go to my grandparents' house. We got back at 1:00 AM. My dad was drunk, my mom forced him to sleep in the sofa and my brother was "having some fun" with the hooker he has for a girlfriend, saying that he had something important to do to avoid having to go with my grandparents. Whatever. As soon as I got home, I started the episode and as expected my computer kept making that noise.
The episode was called "The Praying Soul of Phineas" and according to the summary, this is an alternative episode to the one where they're caught and sent to the Smile-Away summer camp.
In this episode, it is shown as a common Phineas and Ferb episode, cheerful, nice, cute and begins with Phineas and Ferb having Isabella's troop to help them pimp-up the car to make it fly and to build the airport tower. This time, a huge crowd is present to witness this masterpiece.
Meanwhile, Perry the Platypus is called by Major Monogram to fight Doofenshmirtz. But Major Monogram didn't talk. He just looked at Perry with a creepy smile (this lasts for 10 or 15 seconds..?). I got creeped out and checked to see if it froze...it was still playing. So I continued watching. Finally, he spoke and tells Perry that he must stop him, but he doesn't explain why. I was confused but that didn't bother me, so I continued watching. Once he goes to stop Doofenshmirtz to his headquarters, the doctor explains that he's truly fed up of the OWCA, that all his plans go wrong, and that he is planning to kill everyone using a real atomic bomb. I was weirded out by the fact Doofenshmirtz wanted to kill people, he wasn't THAT evil. Doofenshmirtz draws a gun and opens fire against Perry, who is forced to run away, because he can't fight him while he has a gun. I was shocked because it was a REAL gun! His escape follows with a totally complete demented and cruel, red-eyed Doofenshmirtz, who had an angry expression, which was rather terrifying and scary. He had gone mad! I couldn't watch anymore. I paused for 30 minutes. I needed some fresh air. I walked outside and thought about it but then I fell asleep. I woke up, walked to my computer and sat down. I said, "Alright..here goes nothing."
He chased Perry during a short but sadistic sequece and Perry is almost killed, but luckily manages to dodge the shots. When they get to Phineas' backyard, Candace drags Linda to see Phineas and Ferb's invention as in every episode, then Phineas walks towards his mother to show her the flying car, but in that exact moment Doofenshmirtz opens fire and Perry dodges the bullet, and a slow motion sequence is shown how he accidentally shoots Phineas and when it hits him, everything turns black and white and "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap plays. Phineas is lying in the lawn, but with a puddle of his own blood drawn in the habitual Phineas and Ferb style. I cried and closed my eyes...then opened again. The video goes back to the colors when Phineas is in the lawn and it is noticeable: a bright red puddle of blood. The crowd glares, horrified at Doofenshmirtz, and the scene cuts abruptly after showing Phineas lying over a puddle of his own blood, staring at the sky. It's there act one ends. I ran to the bathroom to wash my face and dry my tears but I kept crying. I got back to the cursed movie.
Act two starts with a funeral, and now everything seems extremely depressing. The mortuary is mostly black and the stained glass windows, which enlighten the room, are a depressing monochrome tone. Candace, Linda, Baljeet, Buford, Lawrence and Ferb look very forlorn, the explorer troop laments as well, and the camera focuses during two insufferable minutes on Isabella crying inconsolably. It sounded real, as if the voice actress was actually crying to make this scene. Candace, in extreme grief, regrets about this while furiously hitting Phineas' coffin, crying that this wouldn't have happened if she didn't try to catch them. Act two cuts abruptly to black. I cried extremely hard and tried to close it down. I clicked the exit button rapidly but it just kept going. I also realized that my light was flickering. I got even more scared than before.
Act three beings with a label "Two Days Later..." on which Phineas' house is seen from the outside, but it's cloudy and gloomy. With a demonic Candace in her room, extremely stresses the humming of the Beatles' song "Yellow Submarine." Jeremy happily enters to the house through the backyard, goes to the kitchen and after offering condolences to Linda, he asks for Candace. Linda happily tells him that she's in her room.
But when Jeremy enters to her room, He takes Candace's lamp and breaks it. He cuts her stomach open with it and then he starts eating her organs.He hangs her and leaves a note saying, "It's better this way." with blood splattered on it. Jeremy walks to the corpse and passionately kisses it, but then Linda enters to see if everything is alright. Jeremey turns around with bloody eyes and Linda screams. "Jeremy...how could you?" thinking that Jeremy cut her to death.
After that, we cut to a scene where both Phineas' parents, Ferb, Isabella, Baljeet, Buford, Doofenshmirtz's ex- wife Charlene, his daughter Vanessa, Major Monogram, Carl and Perry are in a prison's electric chair room with Doofenshmirtz in it. All of them have twisted and sick smiles with the purest, unhealthiest, sadistic joy. He begs for mercy but then Major Monogram orders to proceed with the execution. Perry, smiling in a sick and morbid way, switches on the chair. Right before his death, a sequence of real photos can be seen, showing a man wearing a lab coat with a little girl playing and walking in a park, although those actors don't look like Doofenshmirtz and Vanessa, but they clearly represent them. After that, the last thing he sees is Vanessa kissing passionately with her mother. The movie was so horrible that I puked on my keyboard. I ran to the bathroom to puke even MORE!
Doofenshmirtz finally dies brutally: electrocuted on a slow, lethal voltage to lengthen his suffering. At the end, Ferb says something like "Irony is cruel, but not as much as hell."
The episode ends with Doofenshmirtz's lifeless body being thrown on a pile of decaying corpses, among which Jeremy's is still fresh.
The next morning, I looked again for the episode, Google shown among other undesired results the same forum, but the user was banned and the file possibly no longer exists.
Well I'm glad because I never want to see something as gross as this AGAIN!
